        She was deep into the last battle between the giants and the demigod crew of the Argo II, right when Jason thought all hope was lost for them to bring down the mighty Gaia, "... then looking up at an impossible vision in the sky..." "Kay! You should be at the table eating breakfast already not reading!" Ugh, school, if only I was homeschooled. "Mom I don't have any matching clothes, they're all dirty! Can you please help me find something!? Before you say wear a skirt this is so totally NOT a good day for that, we have P.E." "Well you're going to have to find something, school is going to start in ten minutes." You see the only reason I can get away with not leaving for school crazy early is my mom is a teacher and I live only five minutes away from the charter school I go to. Soon I had decided to wear a perfume sprayed dirty top and some clean pants, it was getting colder in Yucaipa every day. I was trying to decide between high heeled boots or my black vans when our old fashioned clock went "Dong!! Dong!! Dong!!" It was seven thirty. She's going to come in here any second I thought and sure enough, "Kayla Morgan Young! I told you ten minutes ago you needed to be at the breakfast table." "Mom, in case you haven't noticed I am having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad morning for many reasons. One of which is I feel terrible, so no breakfast, and the other that I have no washed clothes because somebody was out of town this weekend, so if you could please cool it I would be very pleased and might even be able to go a little faster." Fine! Just no more reading, I'm going to work now see you in class." After she left I decided to wear the vans and quickly laced them up, grabbed a snack, and filled up my big Astrocamp water bottle I got when I went there a week before. Then I raced out the door and down to the Yucaipa Charter School of Young Leaders.
